The mobilization process in Russia did not stop. At the same time, from January 5, restrictions on leaving the Russian Federation and Belarus abroad will begin in Russia.

“When exactly they will announce the next mobilization: it will be tomorrow or on the 16th, it does not matter. Officially, they will start all the processes from January 5. The only thing that bothers male people in Russia is that they will be denied exit.” – said Budanov.

Earlier, Kirill Budanov reported that the Armed Forces of Ukraine were planning a “serious” counteroffensive in the spring. Fighting on the front line in March will be the “hottest”.
